BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), a progressively worsening respiratory condition, severely impacts patient quality of life. Early risk assessment can improve treatment outcomes and lessen healthcare burdens. How...
BACKGROUND: Immune imbalance caused by imbalanced helper T(Th)17/regulatory T (Treg) and follicular helper T (Tfh)/follicular regulatory T (Tfr) cells drives the onset of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) fundamentally. Tryptophan (Trp) metabolism is crucial...
Small intracranial aneurysms (SIAs) (< 5 mm) are increasingly detected due to advanced imaging, but predicting rupture risk remains challenging. Rupture, though rare, can cause devastating subarachnoid hemorrhage. This study analyzed 141 SIAs (101 un...
INTRODUCTION: In China, there is a lack of standardised clinical imaging databases for multidimensional evaluation of cardiopulmonary diseases. To address this gap, this study protocol launched a project to build a clinical imaging technology integra...
OBJECTIVE: To develop and validate an interpretable machine learning (ML)-based frailty risk prediction model that combines real-time health data with validated scale assessments for enhanced decision-making and targeted health management in integrat...
Electronic Health Records (EHRs) depict patient-related information and have significantly contributed to advancements in healthcare fields. The abundance of EHR data provides exceptional opportunities for developing clinical predictive models. Howev...
BACKGROUND: The complex pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) has resulted in limited current biomarkers for its classification and diagnosis, necessitating further investigation into reliable universal biomarkers or combinations.

BACKGROUND: The incidence of intensive care unit (ICU) admissions and the corresponding mortality rates among cancer patients are both high. However, the existing scoring systems all lack specificity. This research seeks to establish and validate a p...
OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to develop and validate a machine learning (ML) model that integrates radiomics and conventional radiological features to predict the success of single-session extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) for ureteral sto...
BACKGROUND: To evaluate the performance of deep learning models in classifying parotid gland tumors using T2-weighted, diffusion-weighted, and contrast-enhanced T1-weighted MR images, along with DCE data derived from time-intensity curves.
